Every control on the phone has a name now, in the app's own words, and the
desktop's word where it already has one; the nav is a tab set whose badge
count is part of the tab's name — "You, 3 transfers" rather than a stray 3
read out before it. The two sheets are dialogs with somewhere sensible for
the focus to land, and the half sheet's grab handle is finally a real
Close — the first dismissal a screen reader could reach, because the scrim
never was one. A sheet that is down is inert rather than sitting
off-screen in the accessibility tree with the hidden mini bar and the nav
under it, and one live region is mounted for the life of the app so that
an undo offer is actually announced; switches say on or off, chips say
pressed, and the waveform is a slider where it can seek. Nothing visible
changed. The walk counts the controls with no name, with a junk name, in a
hidden layer, or with unsaid state — all four held at zero on ten screens,
and the nameless count on a room and on both prompts besides, which is
where the six fields named here actually live.
The desktop Library's per-record file stats on the phone (library_album_stats,
one call for the whole library): FLAC 24/96 or MP3 320k badges on the cards,
the size on the list rows and the record page. The artist page's own
listening (artist_play_stats): the time played as a chip, the most played
track under "On this phone". The whole-library thumbnail warm a moment after
boot, at the cards' edge, one decode at a time behind the tiles' gate.
The playlist repair (Find a local match: the library searched by the
row's name, a pick relinks it through playlist_relink_item; an unknown
row takes the track's identity). A peer's sheet on the raw results (play
or save the folder, browse their files, message, buddy) and the Browse
screen — the hub's Browse tab: a user's whole share with sizes and totals,
a folder played or saved whole; a share can hold thousands of folders, so
it filters and renders 80 at a time. "Look up a user" on Community →
Buddies. The sheets the phone lacked: a queue row's (Play now, Move to
next, Remove from queue), a catalog song's, a catalog card's and the
record page's own, a raw file's (in the results and in Browse), a room
name's, a buddy's, the now-playing Save (the desktop's Save menu for a
streamed track or record). The artwork viewer with pinch zoom, one layer
the back gesture peels. Search's recent searches and its spelling
suggestion from the names this phone knows. You → Streaming, Downloads,
Sharing, Lyrics, Album artwork, and Clear play history; a record's
Re-fetch the cover. The lyrics tools on the sheet's face: the offset
nudged and kept per track, another LRCLIB candidate chosen, the lookup
forgotten and done again (lyrics.svelte.js, shared by the face and the
lyrics sheet).
The harness: every CDP call times out and the reload step re-attaches
(a WebView that stopped answering hung a walk for ten minutes); the
audio check counts SoulStream's own tracks' underruns from the mixer dump
instead of the thread-wide counters that any app's notification moves —
the afternoon's "dropouts" were other apps' sounds, and the browse of a
49,544-file share measured at zero; __settle resets every tab to its root
through the nav; an adb step kind; the walks cover all of the above on
the mock and on the phone.
The same Tauri 2 project builds for Android: mobile.html as a third Vite
entry (src/mobile/, the mockup on real data), tauri.android.conf.json, the
mobile stubs (updater, lyric alignment, vocal separation), rustls reqwest
on Android, the AAudio buffer, and a hand-driven detour build
(src-tauri/android/{env,build,deploy,dev}.sh) while Developer Mode is off.
ANDROID.md is the recipe.
Playback: the media-session plugin crate (lock-screen card, MediaStyle
notification, audio focus, headset buttons, a foreground service that
promotes itself first — Android 14 kills the app otherwise), session
restore across reload and restart, solid chrome after measuring the
backdrop-filter lag.
The catalog: Search is the desktop's top bar (the top-result rule, artist
cards), the artist page and the record page are the desktop's, Home is the
desktop's landing page, Gaps per followed shelf. Playing goes through the
desktop's own source rules, moved verbatim from state.svelte.js into
src/lib/sources.js so both apps share one resolver; the phone readies the
next three tracks and crosses boundaries gapless. Save fetches a record or
a track into the library by the download rules; Transfers shows the
burst. The raw Soulseek search stays, offered on request, a peer's copy
streaming with the lane rising as the bytes arrive. Community is the
Soulseek side (rooms, chat, buddies); the private layer waits.
The opener and storage plugins (social links, the picked library folder,
all-files access), the volume normalization switch, and the harness:
tests/mobile/smoke.mjs walks the mock (a fake network behind
src/lib/events.js) and the real phone over CDP, perf.mjs measures frames.
